DIY Dress-Up Clothes Storage Rack

After Command hook after Command hook kept popping off the wall, we decided it was time for a more permanent solution for hanging dress-up clothes. We created a DIY dress-up rack using mismatched hooks and scrap wood.
 
We dug out five old hooks of various colors and styles, and Mike spray painted them white.

He was pretty pleased with his solution for painting the various screws for each hook.  He poked them through the side of a cardboard box before painting.

Mike then cut a leftover plank from the kids' bathroom counter down to an appropriate size, used his router on the edges, and painted it red...

We put up a mirror behind the playroom door long ago so the kids can get a look at themselves when playing dress-up.

The basket beneath the hooks is for all the non-hanging gear (Cinderella shoes, jewelry in a small drawstring bag, and so on).

The DIY dress-up storage rack fits right in with the rest of the playroom!
